Regatear
To bargain
Real World Example
The Spanish verb "regatear" means "to bargain" or "to haggle." To help you remember this term, think of the word "regatta." Picture a regatta not as a boat race, but as a lively marketplace on water where sailors are enthusiastically haggling over who has the fastest ship. Imagine them negotiating fiercely, waving their hands and shouting offers over the sound of the waves. With "regatear," just like at our imaginary regatta, it's all about the back-and-forth exchange to get the best deal. 🛶
